Way back in the 1995 'New Gold' Lantana won the Georgia Gold Medal Award for its outstanding hardiness, attributes, characteristics and overall performance in the garden. It has stood the test of time for good reason and is still considered to be one of if not the best of the low-growing hardy lantanas. New Gold is one of if not the most profuse bloomers of all the Lantana varieties we grow in our gardens. All summer long and well into fall the trailing mounds are literally smothered in bright golden-yellow flower clusters that butterflies and hummingbirds are sure to find and flock to!

Growing in a trailing mound 12 to 18 inches tall and spreading 3 to 4 feet wide over time, New Gold Lantana is ideal for use as an accent, as a low border, in groupings or mass plantings, or to cascade over a wall in sunny landscape borders. It also does very well as a solo or combined with other plants in pots and hanging baskets. For those who live and garden above USDA Zone 8a, where this lantana is not reliably winter hardy, pots can be brought indoors during the winter. A fine addition to butterfly and hummingbird gardens, yellow theme gardens, sunny perennial gardens, cottage gardens and the Xerscape (low water needs).

Note:  For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 8a, where this Lantana variety is not reliably winter hardy, you'll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.
